I think the entire range of colours is interesting (although I am not a big fan of 'plumb crazy'). Speed yellow and red scream for attention a little too much for my taste (and ok, my age), but do look great. Silver hides dirt and is, of course, the original german racing colour; sadly, the common red interior tends to fade heavily and the carpeting has a tendancy to turn pink.
Like Gikser, mine is a nice, conservative, Ocean Blue metallic with metropol blue top and beige interior. The Ocean Blue metallic has terrific depth - it appears virtually black in low light, but in direct sunlight shows tremendous amounts of metallic and some subtle undertones. And the beige interior adds some nice contrast to the black plastic bits and stays much cooler in the sun. Anyway, it works for me.
One advantage to the darker colours is that one can eliminate 'road rash' much more effectively with Dr. Color Chip (as I recall, that's the name of this terrifc product) than on lighter colours. The best color? Really, no such thing. Most of us bought our cars used and, if you were like me, the color combination was secondary to the condition (and correlative maintenance records). I guess the real test is, what color would you order in a new Boxster? I would definitely stick with a beige interior, but would probably opt for either a black or white exterior.
